My uncle John Kennedy regarded our motion picture industry as one of our most critical foreign policy assets. He appointed the esteemed and beloved war correspondent Edward R. Murrow to revamp the USIA to harness Hollywood to project US values and culture abroad. JFK heavily utilized TV, film documentaries (such as Five Cities of June), and international broadcasting to shape foreign policy, expand global affection and admiration for America, and promote U.S. interests abroad. In recent years, American politicians have allowed this iconic American industry to migrate to other nations. As Cheryl says, the infrastructure, talent, and capital are here—including the most creative filmmakers on earth. All we need to do is to realign the economics. It’s time to bring the movies home!

Actress @CherylHines is advocating for tax incentives to bring Hollywood productions back to the U.S. and the jobs that come with them. “When you’re watching a movie or TV show, for every one person you see on screen, there are thousands of people working behind them… we need to bring it back here and create those American jobs.”
